about

All proceeds go to support the family of Sean Monterrosa, a 22 year old beloved son, brother and friend to many in his community, killed by Vallejo PD on June 2, 2020. Big shout out to this family for organizing and acting in self-advocacy in the face of a violent tragedy.

The track itself is a raw, spontaneous collaboration with my favorite engineer and good friend, Brycon, who - as always, helps me heal through music. For all you hip-hop loving, good music connoisseurs, you will appreciate the sampling, sound and style.

lyrics

CHORUS:
(To The Moon)
I said I thought you love me
(To The Moon)
But you been breakin’ all my
(Heart and Soul)
Can’t take it on my
(Heart and Soul)
And I just wanna love you
(To The Moon)
Because you said you did too
(To The Moon)
And now you breakin’ all my
(Heart and Soul)
Can’t take it on my
(Heart and Soul)

VERSE 1:
Look
She say I love you to the moon and back
Retract with actions inhumane
When I assess on how to tame
I refrain from having hope
Looking through the lens of a lady
Who soothes by dabbing dope
Nah I just wanna float
But not in the fantastic way you think of
Wonder about ascension and
What’s beyond the great above
My heart a dove
It wanna fly
Some think that I just wanna die
But that’s a lie
I just try
My best to deal with every daily
But I am less concerned with qualities of survival
Like n***a pay me
Naw I’m like n***a pray me
Into greater being and save me
Rescue me from the woes
Got me singin’ and sounding crazy
You a fan I’m flaming
You ain’t no friend you faking
Phoney with no reception
I sneeze at your deception
Cuz I’m sick of how you shovelin’ s**t
Every move pollute the air and atmosphere shift
I wish I could click fast forward
See beyond the current terrain
Creating desired holograms so future can contain
Reality that sustains
Rather than a strain on relationships
That start to fade
Like we might
Turn it

CHORUS:
(To The Moon)
And you know we to the
(To The Moon)
Said you would take me but you
(Heart and Soul)
And I’m saying randoms
(Heart and Soul)
But we just keeping it lit
(To The Moon)
I just wanna rocket ship
(To The Moon)
Because You hurt my
(Heart and Soul)
I’m tryna soothe my
(Heart and Soul)

VERSE 2:
How does a matriarch start to slide
To bottom of the totem
How could a family dysfunction
So much so that I wrote ‘em
Into a bar to heal a scar that came from times
That only push me forward
To wishin' all stars cuz I
Get confused when rewind
Details don’t mean a thing
When hurts that currently compound are founding
Of a broken future
Sistars, brothers and cousins
Who still need nurture
Are searching and find answers
That cause cancer
And mad emotion
Sad sideways crab commotion
I’m working on promotion
But it’s difficult cuz I’m coatin'
Coping, like I got asthma but I’m tokin’
Just to focus out the box
Back bend to straighten
All the kinks that turned to locks.
From all the static shocks
Super fly heroes that dropped
Small feet can’t fill these socks
Time don’t heal alone it’s just a tock
And ticking like it’s sucking blood when it’s just wastin’
We looking at each other but can’t tell what we facin'

CHORUS:
You’re breaking all my
(Heart and Soul)
You used to say you love me
(To The Moon)
Like you and I are looking
(To The Moon)
But now you breaking all my
(Heart and Soul)
Said I can’t take it on my
(Heart and Soul)
Blow
(To The Moon)
(To The Moon)
That’s it, for now
